Crazy 8s

543 repetitions of various core exercise, 5 miles.

Easy speed. We try to stay relaxed while we up the pace. The idea is to become more comfortable at faster paces. We relax our face(jaw), our shoulders, our hands, and our brains. The idea is stay as relaxed as possible while pushing. Child birth? May be why the ladies look so elegant and dignified as they hammer around the yard. They are built with a higher threshold for pain.

Thinking will not help you run faster. Usually, thinking gets in the way. No rational, sane brain recieves the input of stress and pain and spits out instructions that increase the negative stimulus. The more insane of us are a bit masochistic. That a different story.

Tell people about Boot Camp. This is a popular time of year to get in shape. Get some fresh blood.
